Sort of Introducing The Grecian 201 One to the Family

Well it was a spurt, a late spurt, but a spurt that nonetheless saw me drag my act together and finish The Grecian 201 One last night. I blame Sky+ and a greater than average rainfall in the local area.

Anywaysup, in between swearing at couriers yesterday, I'm pleased to say that my lovely antiquated bronze baby is all together and sounding rather neat. Proper fotos will follow when the light shines again, but here are the unholy trinity...

But The Grecian 201 One, from the top then, let me introduce you to my latest trick, featuring or maybe even revelling in the mud of the glory that is having:

1. An Alder Strat body, but not just any Alder Strat body, this is

2. An Alder Strat body ladled with reactive bronze enriched paint. In fact it is

3. An Alder Strat body ladled with reactive bronze enriched paint that has been tortured with acid, varnished, corroded and generally mistreated in ways too evil and vile to comprehend.

4. A maple neck with a rosewood scratchplate. Left handed for your pleasure, flipped upside down for your delectation.

5. Gotoh tuners, Wilkinson bridge/tremthing

6. A raw copper leafed scratchplate

7. A GFS Retrotron Hot Liverpool humbucker at the bridge, coil taps being provided via a mini-switch thingie

8. Two Hot Lipstick Kent Armstrong Lippy pickups

All of which means that The Grecian 201 One jangles as well as grooves and generally has lots of cool, hot and interesting tones for you to extract, if ever you get to play with her.

So there we are. And man is she fotogenic-like.
What a girl
What a battered babe.
